Client Testimonials

"SSAS Practitioner.comis a complete package. Refreshingly, the fees are totally transparent and fixed which is great value for money. Prompt and to the point service, they are not intent on generating large fees. Cannot recommend them strongly enough."

Ali Jamil, Lindner Commercial Ltd

"The rules governingSSASsare complicated, and therefore there is understandable wariness in adopting a self-help approach. However, the team atSSASPractitioner.comprovides a friendly and reliable hand-holding service that makes it feasible for many to benefit from the less restricted investment options thatSSAS'senjoy overSIPP's. Furthermore, SSASPractitioner have priced their service very competitively. As a chartered accountant in publicpractice, I am familiar with the challenge of providing good value in a regulated market. I thinkSSAS Practitioner.comhit the mark."

GeoffreyHorley, HorleyFamily Pension Trust

"Having just used Peter and his team at SSAS Practitioner.com to setup two SSAS schemes for my companies, I would just like to say that the quality of support and guidance provided by them (Rita and Debbie in my case) was exceptional. Their response rate to communications and gentle reminders when I was late replying were very much appreciated to keep matters on track. It is not often you find that a company which provides very competitive fees is also able to deliver such high standards on the service element. However, here we have both! Well done."

Pranay Paw, Director of Prima Healthcare Ltd

"We run a farming estate and other small businesses. We wanted to set up a SSAS to consolidate some modest defined contribution pensions and to provide efficient finance options. I have been very impressed by the quality and value for money of SSAS Practitioner's service - they are always much quicker to respond than I am and they have handled complex land transactions with aplomb as part of the flat fee service. I wish the advisers in my day-job were all as good. I cannot recommend them highly enough!"

SSAS Holder, Landowner and Investment Manager, Devon

“We were extremely pleased with the professional and knowledgeable takeover of our existing SSAS by your company, SSAS Practitioner.com. We were losing quite a lot of money in our old scheme on management fees and poor investment. Now we feel that we have more control over the fund, we know exactly what the charges will be, the paperwork is efficient, timely and correct. Altogether we are very satisfied with the great service and the product."

Lynda Porter - SSAS Holder

“We were recommended to use SSAS Practitioner.com by an Independent Financial Adviser who we have known for a number of years. He advised us that they would have the necessary expertise to assist us in what can be a complex and challenging area and he was right.

SSAS Practitioner.com took us through the whole process to include setting up the necessary documentation and obtaining HMRC approval.

We were very happy with the work they did and in particular would like to make a special mention of Ann Sturman and Peter Jones for their patience, understanding and thorough professionalism."

SSAS Holder & Solicitor

"I have been with SSAS Practitioner for nearly three years. Peter's honest and open approach along with a can do attitude gave me confidence to move from Mattioli Woods PLC. Not to mention the extraordinary value for money. I expect to be using this company for years to come, handing over my portfolio to my children when they are ready."

Abraham Smith, SSAS Holder

“I’ve been extremely pleased by the whole operation at SSAS Practitioner. I’m not particularly good with forms and procedures but they made everything easy for me to understand and comply with. There’s no denying that it is a complicated process but the results are certainly worth the effort. The icing on the cake is that, with no lessening of quality that I can see, SSAS Practitioner did the work for less than one fifteenth of the quote I received from what I’d call a more traditional supplier.”

John Williams, CEO & Chairman, Mason Williams

“When I set up my SSAS I took professional advice on fund administrators. I was never happy with them. My account managers changed all the time, they were unable to action simple requests in a timely way, in one case leading to a punitive tax bill as they failed to deliver a with drawl of funds before the end of a tax year, and most especially I disliked that they had to counter sign everything and were registered with the Land Registry on the deeds to the SSAS owned commercial property. Fees were charged for every action and as the level of service diminished, so their fees went up.

I went on line to search out for a different way of managing my SSAS. I had sold my business which I set up from scratch and taken early retirement. I regard myself as competent and financially savvy and perfectly capable of managing the SSAS myself. I asked my Financial Advisor to search out options for me. He charged £750 + VAT and recommended I stayed where I was as his research showed all SSAS administrators charged heavily and the ones I was with were perhaps one of the cheapest, despite their dire service. It was clear that the then Chancellor was trying to make pensions more flexible and to reduce punitive fees being charged and I considered that the industry professionals were struggling to react to this positively to this challenge. My Financial Advisor clearly had reservations about SSAS Practitioner’s model. So we parted.

Today it is easy to go on line and get feedback by users of a service and I was interested to read good things about SSAS Practitioner. I not only spoke with the company to understand how they worked but, because their offices are near where my sister lives, visited them! A straightforward operation with no expensive or showy offices, but a product tailored to suit business people like myself used to taking financial responsibility.

On moving accounts SSAS Practitioner handled all the necessary paper work and were endlessly patient with the firm I was leaving who were as inefficient about effecting the change as could have been expected. They also charged a great deal less for managing the complexity of the move than the firm I was departing from, and made it simple for me to understand.

Since moving I have been utterly delighted with the service and feel quite evangelical about promoting the SSAS Practitioner model of operation. I have recently had new tenants move into one of the SSAS owned commercial units. The solicitor was impressed that everything was right at the Land Registry and commented it made drawing up the lease both cheaper and easier as only dealing with me as Trustee. Also, he had never heard of SSAS Practitioner and liked the model a lot and hoped to introduce it to some of his clients who were stuck with slow and expensive administrators and as frustrated as I was with their management.

So, in conclusion, I would warmly recommend this firm as being the ideal solution for those with a SSAS. I keep them informed of what I am doing and they keep an eye on the fund and advise me on the correct tax approach. They charge an annual fee and then they charge a single fee of £150 (+VAT) for managing all the tax deductions on pay-outs across the year. It is a professional working relationship but with sensible people who are interested in being constructive and assisting you in meeting your objectives; I feel I am part of a really nice team. It’s very reassuring.”

Deborah Clark, The DCA Retirement Benefits Scheme

"SSAS Practitioner.com Limited handled the take-over of my client's SSAS quickly and extremely efficiently. Their fixed, reasonable fees with no hidden costs are a breath of fresh air. Phone calls and emails are responded to promptly and I've found them to be knowledgeable and helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend SSAS Practitioner.com Limited."

Jamie Gordon, IFA, Lynas Vokes

"Thank you for your proactive and professional assistance over the past few months. Having used a variety of Professional Trustee firms to administer my SSAS schemes, with varying degrees of happiness, I decided that I would employ a different approach, where professionalism and consistency of service were high on the aspirations of a new service provider. Following an internet search I came upon SSAS Practitioner.com Limited and decided to speak to you and get a feel for what you had to offer. As a direct result of our conversation I felt that you would be the right firm to handle our requirements in the future and quickly set about transferring over a number of schemes to you. Not only was the service provided fast and efficient, SSAS Practitioner.com Limited have been quick to identify issues and resolve them where possible. A number of administrative shortcomings from recognised Professional Trustees and Scheme Administrators have also been spotted and resolved by SSAS Practitioner.com Limited.

My clients have incurred lower fees and a more professional service since being switched to SSAS Practitioner.com Limited and I look forward to working with you further in the future."

Simon Lander, IFA

"SSAS Practitioner.com's service is professional, efficient and extremely helpful. Your straightforward, fully-inclusive, fixed fee structure leaves no nasty surprises. SSASs are a great tool for small business owners with the desire to control their own pension investments."

"We have the pleasure to recommend your services to anyone interested in operating a SSAS Fund. Your prompt responses to our enquiries are very helpful for our investment decisions. Your follow-up gives us the assurance that the administration of the scheme is up to date. SSAS Practitioner.com offer an extremely competitive service since the all-inclusive fee approach makes it even viable for smaller companies to take advantage of tax-efficient retirement planning."

Gunda Wise, Director, Thuthuka Limited

"Please may I take this opportunity to thank you for your help recently in utilising our company pension fund. I must admit when we first researched the internet and found your services, I was a little concerned at leaving Scottish Widows and handing over the running of my precious retirement fund to an unknown party. Your service has been first class, enquiries answered the same day and what seemed to be a minefield of paperwork was diluted to a couple of phone calls and emails. I must also mention the financial saving in using your service too, more than 30% annually. (More for me to spend in another 10 years or so!!)"

Mark Foster, Managing Director, Heritage Lofts Limited

"As a practicing medical doctor running a busy commercial clinic, I was pleasently suprised by how straight forward it was to set-up a SSAS pension fund. The SSAS Practitioner.com team guided me through the paperwork and the whole pension fund was set-up in less than three weeks! I have recevied great support throughout the process and have found it very flexible to organise the pension fund. This has included the use of funds to purchase the commercial building and setting up an online stockbroker account. Peter Jones and his team should be commended for their work in assisting businesses to take control over their finances."

"I have been very impressed with the service we received from Peter Jones as SSAS Practitioner.com. He explained what was involved and gave information without obligation before we decided to go with his company; and that allowed us to make an informed decision to switch our directors' SIPPs into the SSAS wrapper. Emails are answered extremely promptly (even at weekends) and paperwork turned around quickly, which meant our SSAS was up and running within a very short time of making the decision to go ahead and with no hidden charges. So far, a very good experience and to be recommended."

Director, Legal Services Management Consultancy

"I have been extremely satisfied with the service provided by SSAS Practitioner.com Limited. They handled the take-over from my previous Practitioner quickly and efficiently and have organised the set-up of a PAYE scheme and a stockbroker account. As a complete novice in financial matters, it has been very helpful to have Peter Jones respond so quickly to email queries and guide me through various procedures. I would not hesitate to recommend SSAS Practitioner.com Limited."

Dr Michael Wheatley, Reservoir Related Technology Ltd

"I can throughly recommend the services of SSAS Practitioner.com. They couldn't have handled the take-over of our SSAS scheme any better. I understand more about our scheme in just a few weeks with SSAS Practitioner.com than in all the years prior to their take-over."

Tony Craven, Chariman, Clayfield Construction Ltd

"I would advise anyone with a SSAS scheme to transfer to SSAS Practitioner.com as soon as possible. Not only do they have the lowest fee I could find but their speed of response has been outstanding. The transfer was time consuming for SSAS Practitioner.com due entirely to the previous scheme administrators. I fully expected additional costs due to the amount of work involved. In fact it was all dealt with by SSAS Practitioner.com within the basic annual fee which is less than many companies quoted just for a scheme transfer. Most impressed!"

Ian Eagland, Director, Eagland Machine Tools Ltd

"I have had a huge amount of dealings with SSAS providers over the years. I can honestly say that SSAS Practitioner.com Ltd ticks every box. The all-inclusive fee is outstanding value for money, all completely transparent with no hidden charges. Tasks are attended to on a 'priority basis' rather than the usual industry 'diary turn around days', so if something urgent it is done within minutes. This is vital for clients who are looking to complete on a property purchase, or require a pension loanback for business funding purposes. SSAS Practitioner.com Ltd has access to specialist advisers, enabling them to compete on equal terms with any provider, at a fraction of the cost. I would have no hesitation in recommending SSAS Practitioner.com Ltd."

Andrew Tobin, IFA, Thompson Tobin Financial Solutions

"We have received consistently good and prompt service from SSAS Practitioner.com Ltd. Their knowledge and guidance have been excellent and they facilitate a very smooth SSAS set-up. Their fixed fee basis is both competitive and very refreshing in a market place otherwise characterised by high variable charges. The service is personal and well-tuned to the needs of our scheme. We thoroughly recommend SSAS Practitioner.com Ltd."

John Withers, JG & LC Withers Pension Trust

"Throughout the period I have used SSAS Practitioner.com Ltd I have been impressed by the speed of response to all communication and the efficiency of the operation. They provide excellent service and advice and I cannot recommend them more highly."

Glyn Evans FRCS, London Knee Clinic Ltd

"SSAS Practitioner helped me set-up a SSAS just over a year ago and during that time have assisted me with a property purchase as well as various investment schemes. The service received has been first rate with queries dealt with promptly and in a professional and friendly manner."

James Booth, SSAS Holder

"I have used SSAS Practitoner.com for nearly twelve months now and during that time I have found them to be professional, efficient, knowledgeable and most importantly good value for money. Dealing with Peter has been refreshing, if you ask a question then it gets answered very promptly and his industry understanding has been very insightful. I would have no hesitatation in recommending Peter and SSAS Practitioner.com for the administration of your SSAS pension scheme."

Andrew Tomlinson FFA FFTA, Accountant, tomlinsonandco.co.uk

"Over the many years we have been working with Peter and his team at SSAS Practitioners, we have always received the highest standards of service. They are technically excellent, provide a superb service every time and always keep us and the client at the centre of everything they do."

Jon Foster, IFA, Independent Financial Solutions

"We have been Working with SSAS Practitioner for 2 years, to understand their services and service levels. We landed our first client 4 months ago, which required purchase of a commercial property. We had a specific deadline, but we started with huge delays from a Personal Pension Provider requiring their usual red tape of due diligence and IDs. Legals (for leases, freeholds) Bankers, IFA, Surveyors, client and Accountants were all pulled together by the good management of SSAS Practitoner. The project was delivered on time, the outcome being a happy client who will be provided with good rental income and tax efficient loans all through his new SSAS."
